	Discussion Forum - Let's Play "Signature Song"
		In my opinion, the best signature songs are those which can always be relied on to get the mums and dads strutting their stuff at the kids disco (much to embarrassment of the kids, I must add).
		What is a "signature song?" I guess it would be a song the is uniquely associated with the artist who performed it.
		It is not a favourite song because we will all have our own particular favourites but a one-off recording that is usually guaranteed to bring a smile of recognition to the face of even the most disinterested music buyer.

	YMCA Baseball Team Movie Review by Anthony Leong from MediaCircus.net
		Unfortunately, Ho-chang must keep his new pastime secret from his scholar father (Shin Gu, who appeared opposite Song in "The Foul King"), who would rather see his son become a serious scholar, a vocation for which Ho-chang is woefully ill equipped to handle.
		"YMCA Baseball Team" begins with Ho-chang (Song Kang-ho, seen recently in "Sympathy for Mr.
		Vengeance", is likeable as the film's childlike protagonist, whose giddy innocence shines through when he sees baseball for the first time, or whose embarrassment is painfully obvious when a love letter he wrote is mistaken for a political statement.

	BBC News ENTERTAINMENT Williams sings South Park
		ABC has told the Academy the song needs to be cleaned up or have its profanities bleeped out so that it can be broadcast without embarrassment.
		In the song, angry parents and community leaders in the US condemn Canada for exporting a corrupting obscenity-laced movie for children.
		But the song's composer Marc Shaiman, who wrote the song with South Park co-creator Trey Parker, says they are not taking these concerns too seriously.

	(Insignia - General)A Wood Badger?? Are you Sure??
		ANY Wood Badger would be PROUD and HONORED to sing this song, upon command, with a slight bit of embarrassment but a great deal of pride.
		The first is to have him or her sing the Wood Badge Song.
		I've been a part of Wood Badge courses in Italy, Germany and the Netherlands, Philhung, and the courses are remarkably similar in scope and natiure to the BSA's.

	HEREINMYHEAD.COM lyrics like a virgin
		She chuckles with embarrassment only when acknowledging that, yes, she has performed certain pop songs that will never, ever see the light of day.
		Tori performed a snippet of this song live, in-concert, in a medley (along with Onward Christian Soldier and A Spoonful Of Sugar) during the Dew Drop Inn Tour in Burlington VT on May 7, 1996.
		...there is nothing elegant about the subjects she addresses in conversation, let alone in her songs: rape, miscarriage, sacrilege, death.

	A Saucerful of Secrets
		The song is not blues or jugband music, but it does have a chaotic middle section played by the salvation army band, who were brought in by Syd and told to "play how you like." Vocals by Barrett.
		Whatever the case, the song's theme is a scorn for the military, a theme that would later inspire the Wall and the Final cut among other albums.
		This Wright penned catatonic snooze-o-matic is an elevator music based flower power artifact, that Wright has since dismissed as "sort of an embarrassment." It tells the story of sister growing up and leaving her brother in the dust while selling plastic flowers on a sunday afternoon.

	Filmtracks: The World is Not Enough (David Arnold)
		The song at the very end of the album for The World is Not Enough is simply an embarrassment.
		I had a difficult time pinpointing the reason why the Garbage song just doesn't rank with the others --at first, I thought it was because of the awkward nature of the title lyric-- but I finally came to the conclusion that the lead voice is itself inappropriate for a Bond film.
		Unlike the snafu involving the switching of songs in Tomorrow Never Dies, the theme of the Garbage song is also the title theme of Arnold's score.

	Amazon.co.uk: Morning Glory: the Anthology [Double CD]: Music
		Hardcore Buckley fans might complain that MORNING GLORY contains only one previously unreleased song (an enthralling "Song to the Siren" taken from a MONKEES episode), but they'd been catered to by a wealth of live and unreleased material becomingavailable in the previous few years.
		In the sunny folk-jazz of "Strange Feelin'", the eerie artsong "Song to the Siren", and the lascivious R&B of "Hong Kong Bar", MORNING GLORY portrays a brilliant, mercurial artist whose destiny would remain sadly unfulfilled.
		This collection's one flaw is the absence of Buckley'smost avant garde works, but it still contains an embarrassment of riches.

	The Gauntlet :: Impaled - Heavy Metal - Buddy Icons - Impaled Videos - Impaled Ringtones - mp3s - Tabs - Wallpaper - lyrics
		IMPALED unleashed their second sortie in the form of a two song demo, including the tracks "With Shit, I am Adorned" and "The Ingestion of Colotomic Funk," with Guy Higby at the radar, and Sean manning both the guitars and bass.
		Finally, in an effort to disseminate their propaganda to the masses, IMPALED recorded another new song, "All That Rots," and in a daring night operation, broke into the headquarters of LCA & Alpine Films, and placed the song on the soundtrack for the soon to be released film, The Convent.
		After receiving a court martial for his allegiance to another band, Ross was given a dishonorable discharge from Exhumed, allowing the IMPALED unit to unify even further and alleviating Ross from the embarrassment of repeated ass-rapings.

	Television: Marquee Moon [remastered edition] - PopMatters Music Review
		Television's finest moment, the song "Marquee Moon" is a triumph, a ten-minute epic of Romantic brooding that feels as concise as a three-minute pop song, yet is as powerfully evocative as a symphony.
		With the new polished sound, the drama of "Marquee Moon" becomes starker, and the moment where the heavenly music stops and the song steps back from the sonic excess of the climax and settles back to the simple opening groove becomes even more bewitching.
		While the original CD remaster of Marquee Moon was not an embarrassment, the Rhino remaster has given the best possible sound to this great album.

		Easdale says that the song was a last-minute project, written and recorded on the fly on Sunday.
		In addition to providing a catchy platform for Easdale's thoughts on the election, the song also speaks to the resilience of the Kennedys' original, which sounds as urgent as it did when it was recorded twenty years ago.
		The new song is available to download as an MP3 on Dramarama frontman John Easdale's Web site (johneasdale.com) and includes lyrics penned by Easdale both mocking the circus that the state's gubernatorial race has become as well as Schwartzenegger's alleged history of sexual misconduct and making comments of admiration about Adolf Hitler.

		When the listener recognizes in a blues song a covert sexual reference, for example, the listener naturally perceives himself or herself to be an "insider" who is "hip" to the lingo and "cool" enough with sex to deal with the import of the lyric without embarrassment.
		In Hunter's explanation, the tower in question is the tower that holds the Liberty Bell, the song's imaginative inspiration was the conjunction of the American bicentennial with the birth of his son, and its central message is a celebration of the individual spirit being born and reborn on both the personal and national levels.
		Hunter's poetry as performed by the Grateful Dead is the best example of a body of work which has both thrived in electronically mediated oral culture and maintained an exceptionally high degree of interaction with states of mind brought about by the use of psychedelic drugs, such as LSD, psilocybin, and mescaline.

		Some of the redneck comedians are funny in doses, but this spokesperson for Deliverance extras who isn’t really named Larry, or from the South, is just an embarrassment to humanity.
		I liked this song better the first time, when it was called “Hey Mickey!”, but it’s about the best song featuring fecal matter and bananas since Lobo’s ‘70s hit “Me and You And a Shitty Banana Named Boo”.
		Minority comedians making fun of their own ethnicity is a time honored tradition made famous by Richard Pryor and Cheech and Chong.

	Morrissey-solo Top of the Pops 2 Morrissey vote
		This may sound controversial, but I reckon it's been rigged as TOTP2 probably don't want the embarrassment of having an 'unknown' Morrissey song win the vote!
		You must admit though, Ed, that it would be slightly embarrassing for TOTP2 to have to announce that the winner is a little-known Morrissey song!
		TOTP2 is a BBC show that shows old live performances, and at the moment you can vote for which Moz/Smiths live performance is shown on 7th Feb. Even if you're not in the UK, I beg you to vote for Roys Keen for us, as it was never aired (it only got to no 43).

	The John Barry Resource: Monty Norman's "James Bond Theme" Lawsuit
		Monty Norman has always claimed that he himself composed the "James Bond Theme" and that Barry was simply brought in to arrange the song and give it the Barry sound--something like Barry's "Bee's Knees." Monty Norman has vigorously and successfully defended his credit over the years.
		Yesterday Norman had showed his unpleasant side when he mentioned that Barry had gone to a weekend work session at Norman's Essex house with a "Scandinavian girl."This was not relevant to the case and was designed to cause embarrassment to Barry with his wife in court.
		Norman filed suit against The Sunday Times for defamation of character, saying that he had been defamed as taking credit (and the royalties) for a song that he never wrote.

	Franz Ferdinand: You Could Have It So Much Better: Pitchfork Review
		No, they come back with a big ridiculous stomper, a song whose hooks get so happily ballroom-glam you'd almost think they stole them from the Sweet or the Bay City Rollers-- the kind of song most bands wouldn't be able to pull off without telegraphing a whole lot of irony and embarrassment.
		That's the report from You Could Have It So Much Better, which does a lot to lock in that M.O. As it turns out, Franz Ferdinand, like many an effective singles band, are immensely more lovable when they're on top of the world.
		Some stretches are packed with so many hooks and effortless swings and shifts and yowls that you might start to ignore them entirely.

		Television's finest moment, the song "Marquee Moon" is a triumph, a ten-minute epic of Romantic brooding that feels as concise as a three-minute pop song, yet is as powerfully evocative as a symphony.
		Marquee Moon is comprised entirely of tense garage rockers that spiral into heady intellectual territory, which is achieved through the group's long, interweaving instrumental sections, not through Tom Verlaine's words.

	TWAS 98: Smart Brown Handbag, Vent 414, Gary Myrick & Havana 3am, Shampoo
		It is as if he's threatening, it seems to me, not to reveal a past embarrassment, which could be disavowed, explained or forgiven, but to expose the thinly disguised bleakness of the present, which permits no such easy remedies.
		The over-accented snare sound gave me horrible headaches after only a song or two, the lyrics were abysmal, and I didn't find the cartoonish quasi-Latino, semi-rockabilly machismo endearing in the least.
		His music, like his storytelling, was always painstakingly clear, and the musical clarity of his songs made them easier to take lyrically, because the coherency of the song vouched for the state of the narrator's mind even when the story itself left it in doubt.
